Comment on OpenAUTH: Universal, standards-based auth provider

Comments

Trying to understand where this fits in to the current ecosystem. Looks like it's sort of like Passport but it runs in a separate server, and apps use OAuth2 to communicate with it? The example video looks like it's only doing authentication. Does it do any authorization? Do apps need to use OpenAuth libraries directly, or can they get back with basic cookies/redirects/etc?
